LHS Visual Arts represent at 2017 V.A.S.E.

(This year's T-shirt for the event)

On Saturday, Feb. 4, 2017, 18 LHS Visual Arts students with 22 artworks attended this year's regional competition known as V.A.S.E, held this year in Dickinson. Students were asked to come up with an original concept that can be communicated visually and is worked on prior to the competition. The day of the competition each student must go before a judge to present their effort and explain verbally their reasoning for each work. They are then rated on a I - IV rating (IV being the best, unlike in band or choir). Their scores are based partly on the artwork and partly on the interview. 

This year we had 11 artworks completed by 8 students receive a IV rating.
